Hi, I am running Nebula 128.3.0esr and I am unable to send from hotmail. When I go into the outgoing server settings I do not have an option for OATH2 which it requires the other settings are all as per microsofts instructions: SMTP server name: smtp-mail.outlook.com SMTP port: 587 SMTP encryption: STARTTLS I suspect I am doing something stupid but all my other mailboxes are working fine.

Can't authenticate with Outlook.com's SMTP server. Requires Oauth but Thunderbird doesn't show this option in the drop down

Here's what I've done to try to resolve my issue: - Looked up this help article on support.mozilla.org - My precise problem matches "IMAP/POP3 work, but SMTP does not work" and it's for a personal account so I go visit this article on the hellish ever-changing landscape that is The Microsoft Knowledgebase - All of the server connection settings (address, port, TLS flavor) match - ... but Microsoft wants me to use either "Modern Auth / OAuth2" (other methods are being depreciated), neither of which seem to be available in Thunderbird. - This seems strange since the account itself is using Oauth for the IMAP connection. Why isn't it an option for SMTP? - I try to work around it by creating a new app password on my Microsoft account... - I still get an error telling me to enter a new password (with the checkbox to save in password manager)

Can receive but not send email to Hotmail account through Thunderbird 102.15.1

I have Thunderbird 102.15.1. I can receive emails from my Hotmail account (set up as POP3), and up until 22/09/2024 I could also send emails through Hotmail.

At some point after 22/09/2024 I am no longer able to send emails through Hotmail.

I have the following setting for the outgoing server (SMTP) (which worked fine until 22/09/2024):

Description: hotmail server name: smtp.office365.com Port: 587 Connection security: STARTTLS Authentication method: Normal password

When I try to send an email I get the following message:

 "Enter your password for adriharp@hotmail.com on smtp.office365.com:"

with the password dialog box underneath.

If I change the authentication method to OAUTH2 for the outgoing SMTP server, I very briefly see the "enter credentials" screen flash up, then the Sending message box appears and Thunderbird hangs until I hit the Cancel button. If I leave it to run, I get this message:

 "Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because the connection to Outgoing server (SMTP) smtp.office365.com timed out. Try again."

If I try to generate a new app password in my Microsoft account and enter this with the outgoing SMTP server authentication set to Normal Password, I get this message:

 "Login to server smtp.office365.com with username adriharp@hotmail.com failed."

I use OAUTH2 authentication for the incoming Hotmail server (SSL/TLS on outlook.office365.com). This works fine.

My questions are: - does anyone know why this change happened in the last few weeks ? - how can I change my settings in Thunderbird (and/or Microsoft Hotmail a/c) to send emails via my Hotmail account ? - do I need to upgrade Thunderbird to send emails via my Hotmail account ?

I am running Windows 7 on this laptop so I think my options to upgrade are limited to 115.10.01.

Thanks for your help.

How do I get back into Windows? I am stuck on a page asking for a "challenge question" and I don't know what that is or how to get unstuck and back Windows. It asks to fill in something with the example 'A1b2C3' . This is an issue with Windows 11. I am typing now on my Windows 10 laptop. I tried doing a safe boot up but cannot get rid of the 'challenge phrase' screen to do anything else at all except shut down. Every time, it boots up to show the same. It would not accept my fingerprint, password or PIN prior to the lock down. Too many invalid attempts at signing in is the message on the screen.

I've tried clearing my cache and cookies. My firefox browser is up to date. I tried disabling ad blocker and cookie auto-delete. Javascript is enabled and I even tried turning on that feature that prevents page redirects. I'm truly at a loss for what to do.

Multiple email addresses using same password require multiple logins

I am using Firefox 130.0, 64 bit, with Duckduckgo search engine and TB 128.0.3. I have six email accounts with my Internet provider CTI. I use the same password to log into CTI. I select: "Enter your password for (account name) on mail.pa.net." I select: "Use Password Manager to remember this password." That one login activated all six of my accounts. Using earlier versions (V28) of TB, I logged into only one account on CTI and all six accounts activated and remained active until I logged out at the end of any session with CTI. Now the passwords must be entered individually for all six accounts and each account times out after a few minutes of inactivity, then I have to relogin for each account. What happened between V28 and V 130 to change that procedure and can I fix it? CTI explains they did not change anything on their end. Thank you, D. Gordon

I have had two Gmail accounts on Tbird for about a year with no problems. Now I get unpredictable or no results trying to send or receive messages from the newer account. A message mentioning unsuccessful server authentification is the most common. "we have sent your message but not mentioned it in the "sent" folder due to connectivity problems" also occurs. I have absolutely no problem on iOS mail or Tbird running on MacOS. To the extent that I can decipher the iOS settings, there is no difference.

I DON'T want my email account password to be saved anywhere in Thunderbird and I DO want to have to enter the password each time I start up Thunderbird anew. However, my password is being retained. I've deleted the password entry from Settings & Saved Passwords but seem to have to do that every time before I close down. Where/how can I ensure I have to enter my hotmail password each time I start up Thunderbird please?

400. That’s an error.

The server cannot process the request because it is malformed. It should not be retried. That’s all we know.


I keep getting this pop up message when I click on my inbox folder. I have two other email accounts, and they are working. I have compared the settings for the account that is not working, with the accounts that are working, and they are the same. The account that is not working is my main concern. Sure would like to get it working again. Any suggestions? Thank you if you can help!

I have not been able to get Thunderbird to work with my outlook.com email address since MS requires 2FA, for me about 3 days ago. My server configuration is :

W10/32 bit fully patched Thunderbird 128.2.3esr (32 bit) POP Mail Server outlook.office.365.com, port 995 my MS "user name" which is my email xxxx.outlook.com SSl/TLS OAuth2

       In SMTP Server 

outlook.office365.com 465 SSL/TLS OAuth2 xxxx@outlook.com

The error message I get with this config says "Thunderbird could not connect to server outlook.office365.com; the connection was refused".

I DO NOT have an office365 account.

Logging to www.outlook.com with my UN (=outlook.com email address) and password WORKD. Although the lack of a way to turn off the MS spam filtering makes it useless. I have put some MS thing on my phone and I have to do some 2FA thing when bringing up www.outlook.com.


Help please.
